Hopeman Flooding Consultation Event

A public consultation is to be held in Hopeman on Thursday, October 16 following flooding which affected many homes in the village during early August.

Members of Moray Council’s flood risk management team will be on hand to gather information from local residents and to hear first hand how events unfolded during the period of intense rainfall.

Villagers are being asked to take along any photos or video footage of the flooding and anything else that might be relevant.

The consultation, which will take place in the Hopeman Memorial Hall from 4pm to 7.30pm, will also include representatives from the Scottish Flood Forum and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency who will be able to deal with queries on issues such as personal flood protection, insurance and raising flood risk awareness.
